The series, You Are Something the Whole World is Doing, imagines the limitations of the physical body in digital space. The bodies represented in the sculptures and videos are not like the bodies we see in movies, advertising, and video games that effortlessly navigate through groundless space. Instead, the burden of weight blankets the human form in the cast silicone sculpture, Water Striders. The video projection, The Ground was Never Stable in the First Place, depicts an exhaustive infinite landscape navigated by a fragmented body in protective gear. To Give Oneself as Thing pieces together sections of a full-body cast; the vacant exoskeleton once having served to both paralyze and to heal. The work navigates planes of slippage between the finitude of biology, and the interminable capacity of virtualization.
